Very nice whisky. Not complex by any stretch, but delightful to drink. Very sweet, perfect introduction to whisky. Works well with cigars too. Don't put water in it though, it really doesn't need it.

I bought this in England to take as gift to our Scottish hosts, (coals to Newcastle I know) last weekend. None of us had tried The Auchentoshan Classic before, but we all found it to be really delicate any very enjoyable.

Really enjoyed this over the Christmas period. Couldn't drink too much of it one go, though, before having to switch to something smoother. But very happy with it all the same.

Just tried it at a free tasting at Noorman's Kill in Bushwick and it was the smoothest scotch i have ever had

Lovely light whisky. Very easy to drink, only problem is applying the brakes. Very moreish. Good everyday dram especially at the price.

Enjoying my first taste of the `classic` and finding it very nice indeed. The first sip definitely carried coconut and vanilla flavour, but there is a hint of lemon or citrus in the afterglow, thoroughly enjoyable lowland malt.

Surprisingly this has flavors that remind me of the finer 1988 Toshan.However the 'freshness' of the Classic is really it's most noticeable characteristic. I'd certainly serve this to guests, but reserve the more mature Toshan for my very good friends.The cedar and fruity character of the 1988 is really not boldly present. There is a hint of it, the texture is lighter - the 88 is much more complex.At the price it is probably the best Scotch available.

I purchased an older bottle ( the old look bottle ) and it was a very fruity scotch, it tasted of oranges or maybe mandarines .Was very smooth without too much heat, as far as lowlanders go this one was pretty good.
